For a moment Remi reached out towards his own shoulder to still the suddenly shaky rag. It was a naive thing to do of course, but Remi's altruism was instinctive. "So I have been told." Then, as if anticipating Ludo's next question he added, "—Amalia mentioned part of what you had she and Jigano do."

Looking up into Ludo's mask the alchemist tried foolishly to imagine an expression there. "I have no idea." Remi answered with an honest and bright laugh, before remembering where he was, and who had just been swaddled around him. Sobering appropriately, the alchemist cleared his throat, shrugging beneath Ludo's gaze. "I know it will not be as simple as opened and unlocked doors. I cannot put everyone else at risk. That is why I want to start preparing now, so that there is time. Sometimes I think that having a place where only a few of us are, a few who are prepared can wait with doors unlocked.. We could make it known that any who are caught out in the darkness can come to us. But of course...what if they are too far away? Or get lost?" Biting his lip, the alchemist shook his head thoughtfully. "And then I think perhaps each night I could search. Safrin bestowed lights—fish actually—to Phoebe and Ronin. If she would do the same, perhaps I could be a beacon and could shepherd any caught outside to safety?"
